【美国农户面临柴油价格冲击利润底线】美国农户在抢收大豆和玉米的关键时期,正遭受不断飙升的柴油价格带来的沉重财务负担。美国柴油价格在9月4日创下历史纪录,首次飙升至每加仑5.85美元,并在9月11日再次创下历史新高,达到每加仑6.05美元。威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校农业与应用经济学教授保罗·米切尔表示,高昂的柴油成本严重挤压了农户的利润空间,从收割庄稼到运输,每一个环节都受到影响。农民杰森·库尔茨表示,他今年支付的柴油费用是去年的两倍,这直接冲击了农场的利润底线。面对无法控制的外部成本压力,许多资金吃紧的农场不得不大幅削减其他预算。分析人士认为,如果柴油价格持续高位运行,美国农户的生存空间将被进一步压缩。如果在接下来的收割季里,成本压力得不到缓解,许多中小型农场将面临更为严峻的资金链断裂风险。
